Playing with friends.

Why do I have to invite my friends every time a game finishes? Can y'all create some type of party mode, where we can stay together?

    It's the killer's revenge for ganging up on them. :p

    Because the game was originally designed for solo survivor and SWF was a thing that got added later and is still not working properly. The quality of life thing you described is the least of the problems, it also breaks matchmakign completely and then there are the voice comms....

    It's annoying to be sure. As a new player, I wanted to main Killer. But with Rank 20 Killer queues on PC being an absolute joke, I might as well go Survivor. Well, I won an extra copy of DBD from a Streamer's giveaway this past Sunday. Already gave that one to a family member. Maybe I will just buy two more copies and gift them, set-up the Discord server, and go SWF.

    Since I can't get matches as a Killer at Rank 20, and have to just play Survivor, might as well take advantage of ######### and SWF.

    @Kilmeran Nothing really, just mentioned that it was the original programming of the game, since only kyf was supposed to make it in the game. Didn't say anything about changing it.

    Gotcha. Not really a big deal for me. As I said a few posts above, I wanted to main Killer, but since Rank 20 queues on PC equate to: Go play a different game if you actually want to play any matches,. I've considered just biting the bullet and going Survivor. In which case, I was just going to go with an all-out ######### it and just SWF a 4-man. If I can't get three friends to come to the game, there are enough Discord player-groups to join.

    Friggin' Killer lobbies on PC for new players are a meme.

    Yeah, the reason for the SWF being a bit funky was because it wasn't supposed to be in the game so what we do have was put in place using existing code as quick as possible.

    But on the list of things in the game that I think should be fiddled with I put the having to re-invite for every game pretty middle of the list.

    It is a minor inconvenience at best. Take turns sending invites if it gets tedious..

    If a killer drops an SWF group from the lobby, do they have to reform the group?

    Not that I would ever do such a thing, just asking. :)

    God forbid the people you are playing with have names that are far down the alphabet, it makes it that little bit more painful. You can't even invite people in the same Xbox Live party, you have to use the in game system.

    Buff SWF anyone? :crazy:

    LOL. Ok, that does sound a little mental.
